Brett frowned. "What happened?"
Erin, trying to control the rush of emotions brought on by his sudden appearance, explained the whole situation, though she deliberately left out anything about her relationship with Joseph.
When she finished, Brett's frown deepened. "Come on. Let's go home."
Erin glanced toward Joseph's hospital room, clearly still worried.
Brett, seeming to guess her thoughts, said with a grim expression, "I'll arrange for someone to watch him."
He gave her a once-over, his eyes filled with disdain as he took in her muddy, soaked appearance. "You need to go home and change. Even if you don't care about looking ridiculous, I do."
Erin stared at Brett's face for a moment, hesitating before asking, "Why... did you come?"
He responded impatiently, "Why did you call me?"
